In addition to the very popular MuslinZ monochrome leopard print, used by many parents as a sensory muslin to stimulate their newborns, 'a new sensory collection has been designed. Perfect for visual development.

Sensory Muslins are good for your baby and monochrome is on trend !

Monochrome colours are on definitely trend! But we designed the MuslinZ Sensory range in black and white because they are more than just a fashion trend. A whole heap of research has been made available suggesting that your newborn baby will benefit from black and white sensory stimulation.

Newborn babies vision develops over the first few months. Up to around one month a baby can focus on shapes nearby and are not able to see colours.' Babies colour perception and general vision develops between 2-4 months and by 5 months they will see the full spectrum of colours.' So just after birth, your baby will only focus on the edges of objects (where the contrast is greatest). Black and white colours have the highest levels of contrast and are particularly easy for your baby to see.

If you think your baby is just lying passively, think again! In fact, whilst your baby is awake, there is a lot of learning and brain development taking place. So, as your baby's brain is constantly developing, and during this period of rapid brain growth, your little one needs your support and simulation.

Using black and white patterns provide your baby with stimulation for the early stages of their eye development. Babies love looking at high-contrast black-and-white patterns which stand out and helps them with attention and focus.

The New MuslinZ Sensory range offers your newborn baby the right kind of visual stimulation which supports their optic nerve development (sight) and encourages your baby to focus. The sensory black and white images assist your baby's eye muscles and their brain to coordinate and function properly.
